**achievements of the charity**
**during the year**|•
We continue to provide a safe, stimulating, and inspiring
environment for the children
•
Children numbers are at full capacity until September 2027.
•
This was a successful fundraising year raising £6,684 to support
the purchase of pre-school equipment and to supplement running
costs.
•
The setting has been using the Famly childcare management
software platform throughout the entire academic year, and
feedback from parents has been positive. Now that staff are
comfortable with the system, they find it an excellent tool for
sharing updates on the children’s activities. Each staff member
updates their key children’s learning journeys weekly and sends
out biannual reports covering all areas of development.
•
The Pre-school continues to prepare children for a smooth
transition to Primary School.
•
Regular staff and management meetings were held
•
The process of obtaining planning permission for a shepherd’s hut
has begun, which will significantly expand the Pre-School’s
available space.
•
Adjustments have been made to the Deputy Manager role,
enabling the Manager to spend sufficient time on administration
during working hours instead of during personal time.| March **2012** **TAR** 5 **Section E Financial review** ~~ee~~ **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** The charity’s policy is to maintain reserves equivalent to three months of running costs, with any additional surplus reinvested into the Pre-School for educational purposes. **Details of any funds materially in deficit** ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. ## ~~a~~ **Section F Other optional information** ## **Section G Declaration** ~~a~~ ## **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** **Signature(s)** ~~LRM [Sint te~~ **Full name(s)** Kristina Bull Simon Blee ~~po~~ **Position (eg Secretary, Chair, etc)** ~~re~~[Chair ] Treasurer **Date** 20 October 2024 March **2012** **TAR** 6 **Great Tew Pre School 1029188 Receipts and payments accounts For the period** 01/01/2023 31/12/2023 **To from** ~~ee ee ee ee~~ **CC16a** ## **Section A Receipts and payments** ||**Unrestricted**

An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. **Independent** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention **examiner's statement** (other than that disclosed below *) 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act - have not been met; or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. - _Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply._ **Date:** 30[th] October 2024 **Signed: Name:** Lee Peet **Relevant professional** MAAT, MD of Modern Accountancy Limited ~~|~~ **IER** **March 2012** 1 **qualification(s) or body (if any):** **Address:** Modern Accountancy Ltd, Suite 2, Unit 1b Pope Iron Road Worcester WR1 3HB **Section B Disclosure** Only complete if the examiner needs to highlight material problems. **IER** **March 2012** 2 **Give here brief details of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose** . **IER** **March 2012** 3
